Confidence is the most attractive feature one can have. Of course, there is a fine line between someone being confident and overly confident (often time called “cocky”), but often times it is better to possibly be overly confident than not confident at all. Confidence plays a huge factor in the work place. Co-workers respect you more if you have it, as do the people you report to; like your bosses. People put their faith in you and essentially give you the time of day. It’s a virtue that you just can’t buy. So how do you boost your confidence so you can get ahead in society? Well, follow these tips below and you will be good to go!

1 – Be optimistic: Confident people never let things get them down because they know that everything is going to work out for the best in the end. This attitude is what makes others gaze upon them with amazement. They always seem to be so headstrong even during the toughest of times.

2 - Never be jealous, be supportive. If somebody has something you want, you should never display jealousy or any type of envy towards that person. This shows that you are a weak person who goes after the perks of other people’s lives. The best thing you can do if somebody has what you want is to support them and be happy for them. This will help you exude confidence by showing you are happy with what you have in your own life.

3 - Talk to loved ones about your strengths. Sometimes, people may get down on themselves about certain personality traits or something about them. This essentially gives the person a bad self-esteem. The best way to lift your self-esteem, and inevitably your confidence, is to talk to your loved ones about what makes you the unique, great person that you are. You can ask anyone from your parents, to your sister or brother, to your friends, or to your girlfriend or boyfriend. Essentially, anyone who is close to you will be able to give you some reasons why they like being around you. Take it to heart.

4 - Disarm negative vibes. Everyone has that person in their life who is, what some may call, a “Debbie Downer.” This is the person that finds any positive situation and turns it negative. They can find something wrong with even the happiest of moments. These type of people drag down those around them. If you see one of your friends or someone you hang around with often acting like this, then maybe you should take some time apart. Venture off on your own and let your positively good attitude thrive because once it does, you will feel better overall.

5 - Copy confidence. This tip is helpful if you know somebody who is confident in the areas that you aspire to be. Mimic their ways. Learn what it is exactly that makes them so confident to you. Once you figure it out, you will be able to apply these things to your own life.
